“I feel like returning to the lab where I got my first Soul Transfer. The energy that should be used probably the same as the cultivator who reached Culture Core stage and above. And there are also stabilizer and body strengthening liquid.”

Manstein always thought the possibility of him using Soul Transfer as an ability in this world instead as a method. It was because the natural energy in this world was much stronger compared to his previous world.

“Senior, will you believe me?” Alice asked as the last signal. She too felt nervous even after she lived for a long time. After all, her intention to learn so many things in this world was to find Manstein.

Right now, Manstein placed himself in the middle of an altar. Different from Soul Severing Altar which functioned as something to sever any lingering soul that would affect the soul, this altar main use was to support the Body Creation process.

Actually, Body Creation referred to the process that would form the shape of a body. But this case was slightly different, not only they just create a random body but the almost identical body of the soul.

Hair, skin color, gender, and etc would not be changed during the process but as we know that the environment which someone lived also affect the change. Characters, habit, the way of thinking alike was still taken from the current soul, meaning that they still retain their previous trait.

“I leave it to you. In this world, you are my senior so I entrust the entire process to you too.” Manstein replied in a carefree manner. Then he took a glance to a where Ye Shui was before he felt a strong force coming.

“Please, please don’t do this.” A weak and sad voice that came from both Ye Guhan and Ye Canghai. They could do nothing to prevent it from happening and even so for their son.

“Yes, Grandfather. We all don’t want you to end up like this.” Said Ye Xiaobai, Ye Qingcheng, and Ye Yingyuan.

They knew that all their effort will be failed by the twist of event that led them to the present. They only did all of that as a way to express themselves. They wanted to let that old man know that they would remember him!

“It’s impossible, you know. It’s impossible.” Said Ye Shui. He really wanted to reply to them that he would watch them from a place that they could not imagine.

“I’m sorry, Father. I’m still not able to do the things that you told me that year until now.” Said Ye Canghai. There were some things that he could not accomplish within the last fifty years and now he regretted it not because he could not do it but rather he still did not do it until now.

“That was already a thing of the past. Why don’t you look forward once again and say goodbye to the thing that you saw on your back, leaving them but not forgetting them.”

How could he not know the thing that his son thought the most even after he had a family? But unexpectedly, his injury back then resulted in this situation and ended up as a trouble to the future.

“Look, I have a present for you all when this is over so you all don’t need to be sad for a long time.”

Ye Shui opened his palm, showing a certain diagram. And at the same time, the surrounding space trembled and even almost disrupted the Body Creation process.

“You all go outside if there is nothing to talk about.” That could be the last words that the member of Ye family heard but then their latest descendant were closing themselves to him.

“We still remember that Grandfather would stay with us when we play together outside. I also remember the kindness that Grandfather had given to me!” Ye Yingyuan could clearly see the weakening of his grandfather’s soul every second. In his inner thought, he hoped that someone could make a miracle.

From his expression, he had already sobbed.

“Even when something went wrong with me, but someone like Grandfather still let me do as my heart pleases. Not only that but my life was saved by Grandfather, am I right?” Ye Qingcheng bitterly said.

He braced himself to say this. There was something strange in his body which could not be solved at the moment. Even Yu Feng could only treat the symptom without curing it.

“And....me. I, I don’t know what to say.” In fact, what Ye Xiaobai wanted to say was much more than that. He remembered that he insisted his own grandfather to give him a lot of resources!

‘Did I really do all of that!? How dare of me.’ When he thought about the scene again, his entire being was shocked to the extreme. And besides that, he also remembered some major things that he did when he got back.

‘Is this me!?’ a sudden flash of memories poured out like a spring. Then he remembered everything and at the same time, his expression changed.

As for Manstein, he entered another state that he could not really explain with words. But one thing for sure that he just saw everything around him as pure darkness without any light. He felt like returning to the safest place in the world.

But from another side, a form started to take shape. At first, it was only like some strange lump with meat in it but later on the shape change once again.

“Derived from the process when human was created through the natural process, but with the additional information which stored in the Soul and reflected it to create a new DNA, we artificially can create a body that looked like the original body that the soul previously possessed.”

This was Alice’s self-created Body Creation method. It looked like so simple because she just derived it from the natural process but to actualize such a thing was not an easy feat.

“So fast! To think that there will be a day that I witness a new method. I must learn from it!” the entire process was like flowing water in the river. It was so smooth and faster than any methods that Hou Fei could think at the moment.

“If you can watch the entire process of the human creation, you would understand more of this process.” Wang Yu added.

-

“Looks like we meet again at the different place of course.” The sudden appearance of Ye Shui made Manstein caught off-guard.

“Sorry for everything that I had caused,” Manstein said with apological tone. He would never believe that what he had done from the day of his appearance did not cause anything.

“No, no. It should be me to apologize to you. The day when you appeared is when the energy in the environment reached the peak! Not only that but after that event, every artifact in our storage increased its grade as well.” Explained Ye Shui.

“What causes such a thing is definitely not me!” Manstein rejected.

“But.I just started to know about you. Why did this happen?” suddenly Manstein asked. He really felt something not just like what he had seen but there was definitely something. Maybe the patriarch himself would not completely reveal the fact but at least now, he should tell a thing or two.

“Why, you ask? Actually, you know it yourself right.” Ye Shui looked back at him.

“It’s because of the incident with Ye Xiaobai? But with your strength, that was not even a deal so why that incident affected you?” if Manstein thought about it, he had to agree that there was a large hole that he did not completely understand.

Then Ye Shui looked at him in surprise but only for a second before he concealed it again. But Manstein already caught it and knew that there was something that the patriarch had yet to tell.

“Just tell me what the thing that still stuck on your mind.” In the end, the only solution for that was to let the opposite party speak up voluntary.

After a sigh, Ye Shui then told him something that really surprised him. “Did you know about this?” Y Shui asked.

A strange symbol then started to appear. But Manstein suddenly shuddered because the symbol that appeared from Ye Shui was really the one and the same kind...

-Found Similarity...Searching-

‘That...symbol...’ Manstein saw every detail of that symbol to find something different. But he could not discern it with only his perspective and abilities.

-Confirmed the similarity with The Tribulation and Retribution Seal! 90,72 % similarity-

The Intelligent Assistance Device scanned, processed and let out the result and for Manstein, it was quite a shock for him. Yes, the same seal which he had recently been planted also appeared.

“From your silence and expression, I know that you also have this seal with you right?” actually when Heaven Restriction came down, he felt that moment when the seal had appeared in Manstein’s soul.

“What is this seal actually?” because there was a tight time, Manstein then hastened it to the most important thing to know. Ye Shui then showed to him all of his memories regarding the seal with his energy from his soul to connect with Manstein’s.

“Now, you at least have a picture of its capabilities. And, young man...” Ye Shui then said the thing that he wanted to this person.

“...please treat my family like your own family. I can only say this much because I finally feel it.” Ye Shui looked up and his eyes stared at the thing above. Even Manstein could not see what Ye Shui had seen.

Then Ye Shui said the sentences from the records that Ye family had for countless generation and also for Manstein, this was the greatest reminder to him due to the same content it held.

“Once mortal, forever mortal. By origin, we pursue eternity but only suffer in eternity. No matter how many years had passed, every living being that has a soul will have the taste of death.”

“What!?” hearing that reminded Manstein of what his grandfather had said.

‘You really are reckless, don’t you!? But don’t forget your own root just because of this kind of method.’ That was what Grandfather Ryner had said to him when Manstein finally found out the Soul Transfer method.

Because of that, Manstein also recited every sentence with solemn.

“Huh, this sound is...” the first to react to Manstein’s voice was Alice. She remembered this sentence well and felt admiration to the writer of that sentences.

Soon, everyone also heard that as well. This every sentence had its own meaning and it depends on the person to interpret it. Every person would have its kind of perception and point of view so the result of them hearing the same source could differ.

Even Ye Canghai and Ye Guhan gasped in shock when hearing this. Their souls felt a large pressure and their body also reacted the same outside.

“This...” then both of them cried in soul and body. This was what they had learned the very first time right before they even cultivating. Ye Shui had told them not to forget their origin and also not to pursue something that impossible like the literal eternity.

And of course, this also included the Ye trio. Ye Xiaobai, Ye Qingcheng, and Ye Yingyuan silently remembered.

While most of them were in awe and their utmost respect but Alice, Wang Yu, Ho Fei and Wu Qing could not lose their control or the entire process would fail. It was because they are the center of the formation.

“Let them be for a while. Let’s continue.” Alice understood it as well.

“We really shared the same fate of being marked with this seal.” Said Ye Shui before he almost used up all of his energy.

“They still remember it well, I’m glad. I’m satisfied with this so that only leave you alone.” Ye Shui once again told Manstein.

“So this is it?” Manstein also felt the time has come. Although he only knew this old man from another person’s point of view, he still had some good feelings to this patriarch.

“Yes. Please relay my goodbye to them all.” Then the weakened soul started to fade, to leave nothing behind. Slowly, the accumulated feeling from everyone around that space, especially from the member of Ye family poured unhindered.

“No!”
